Usually, rain on a track day is disappointing. At worst, you watch helplessly as the rain washes out all the sessions. Sheltering beneath a Skip Barber tent at Sonoma Raceway during a particularly aggressive downpour, I wondered whether this two-day event with BFGoodrich would, in fact, be a washout. Instead, it became the perfect opportunity to explore both the wet and dry handling characteristics of the latest G-Force tire from BFGoodrich, called the Phenom T/A.
